Here in the US, you can get a proper stereo in it WITHOUT that nasty, disgusting, annoying, anger inducing blight on the rear which pulls in equally crappy radiowaves from a really crappy, third rate company called XM

I wish I had bought a 50th anniversary instead of my C2 for this reason and this reason alone.

ArashApollo

I completely agree. That thing is ugly as hell. I want to remove it but I know there will be a hole underneath.

Matt-R20

Wow, is this the piece which is creating so much anger and disgust?

RichardC

I don't have that bump on my 50th, but it looks like Msmatt does. I don't have XML radio though.

LexVan

I hate that thing, too.

rpilot

Yes, at least on the 50th, either Bose or Burmester can be ordered without optioning XM Radio and that wart. I hate looking at that thing on my car.

parkerfe

Wow, I love my SiriusXM radios in all of my cars. And, I never even notice it on my 991s; its much smaller than the one on most other cars.

dr.alexs

Wow - yeah. I never noticed that thing really and didn't think about it until now. Now that you point it out, it is really going to bother me! It is really ugly...ruins the clean lines of the 911 silhouette

Team Plutonium

F@ck! I'm cutting mine off... if that doesn't work I'll burn it to the ground. I'll post a DIY video shortly....

Bacura

Doesn't bother me either and I love my XM. No commercials ftw.

John's 991

The little wart does not bother me either. It is more discrete than many radio or other antenna I have seen. I did need to get it replaced early on, as reception was horrible. It is much better now, but not as good as the other two cars I have with satellite radio.

Glad those of you who don't want satellite radio can get your cars minus the external wart. Now about that internal sport chrono wart...

Zohan

use freeze away wart remover

hawc

Replace with this!

MKW

that's " fly " , bro

Seriously, have all you OCD types also grimaced everytime you approached your other cars , most if not all with the equivalently form-disrupting shark fin antennae on their roofs, the past 10-15 years?

Can't believe they haven't been able to conceal the Sat/XM antenna somewhere on the car (rear view mirror housings would seem to be a good choice). Someone could make a small fortune by devising/patenting an integrated antenna system.
